Only certain estates in 15 states. https://www.mtn.ng/broadband/fibrex/ No more than two estates in each of other 10 states, after Lagos, Ogun, Rivers, FCT and Kano.

Clicking on Rivers State, made me realize there's a Cøcãiñe Village in Rumuogba . Yes, an actual name of a community.

Finally there's an explanation for how people like Wike behave the way they do.

Seems Airtel ODU “unlimited “ data plan has a 1TB data fair usage policy after all .

I noticed that during my last sub the network speed was pretty slow like 4 days before my next sub . So yesterday I was 14 days away from my next cycle of payment for renewal .

I logged on to the router and discovered I had used 1.17TB of data since my last sub after experiencing terrible data speed . Then I did some google search and confirmed that once you cross 1TB data usage on the airtel unlimited package , your network speed will revert to “
Snail speed per seconds “‘.


Las las, there’s no true unlimited data plan in naija .

Cc: Iamoyindamola, sportsweb , GloriousGbola

Yeah , It is capped at 1TB, after which your speed drops to 2 MB/s.
MTN FiberX appears to be a better option, Based on user feedback, but dat one can't cover every place in Nigeria, as MTN is just targeting urban areas alone.

OK, let's wait and see

The past month has been an incredibly difficult period for me and my family. Nigeria happened to a beloved and close member of the family and this one hit really hard.

I am still struggling to reconcile the harsh reality that she is gone. Imagine speaking over the phone with someone one day after something that brought extreme joy to the entire family and 2 days later the person is gone. The entire family is devasted and the pain no be here.

A very big thanks to everyone who reached out, I no fit mention everybody, including those who left mentions on the forum, I am really grateful. Once again, death puts a lot of things in perspective for me. Life is too short, do the best you can and find happiness in little things.

Onwu di njo!

It is well, bro. May God comfort and strengthen the family she left behind.

I used to follow Cowbell maths quiz competitions for a while, though I’m not sure if they’re still doing it . I remember when some people even argue that the contestants must have seen the questions beforehand, simply because they couldn’t believe anyone could solve problems that quickly.

BlueRayDick:
Most of the routes keke ply are trekkable, so the moment u decide to increase the cost per trip from 200 to 400 because fuel which used to be N850 less than a month ago is now N1,300; majority of potential customers will trek. At some point you will be forced to reduce the price to say maybe N250 and this will definitely lead to a loss in the long run.(The reason why you would reduce the price is because you have limited time to work with ghe keke if you are not the owner. You won't sit on your fuel hoping a customer that will pay higher fare will come when you know you will give the Keke to someone else to work with in the evening)

I completely agree with this highlighted submission 💯. But, I believe this will mainly apply to Lagos or cities where routes are within inner streets and cover relatively short, trekkable distances.

I’m sorry to say this, but Lagosians are lazy. To be honest, (Whenever I visit, ) it’s surprising how often I see able-bodied young people pay for such short trips. ( we wouldn’t pay for that in Ogun State. 😂 😂 😂 )

So , I agreed Because of this, commuters in such areas have little choice but to resist fare increases, many keke riders may be forced to stick closer to the old price. In fact, the initial ₦200 fare was already overpaid, yes, grossly overpaid ,so any attempt to increase it will cause katakata.

In Ogun State, the situation is quite different. Except for places like Abeokuta and Sagamu (and possibly Ijebu-Ode, though I’m less familiar with the city), most areas where keke operate involve longer distances that are not easily trekkable. So, fares have increase accordingly.
Thouhh, I still believe the ₦5000 to ₦50 claim made by that man is over and over and overly exaggerated.

Case closed 🔐
😂😂😂

YoungB1a:
It’s possible to make about ₦50 after buying ₦5,000 worth of fuel (around 3.5 liters) in Warri, especially if the driver runs three trips from Ekpan Expression Junction to PTI without carrying a full load.

😂 😂 😂
Who does Dat, that is madness .

izzou:
The patronage obviously becomes lesser with the increase. I think that's the assumption you're getting wrong.

The roads are currently free in Lagos.

Ibiye to Agbara is 300 naira with Keke. This was the old price at 870/ltr. I still entered it at 300 naira today.

Alakija to 3rd avenue was 500 at the old rate with Okada. It is still 500 to 600 now at 1320/ltr

While I agree with you that 50 naira profit is not true, The increase doesn't mean more money. It brings a lesser patronage for them.

People will rather trek, lap themselves, find private vehicle to beg or get a lift, or find alternative means than pay the increase.

Amoto94:
I was reading to see whether others will point out to him that an increase in fuel price often leads to decrease in patronage for transport workers. His assumptions fall flat when you consider the fact that there are less people on the road hence fewer people boarding vehicles per trip for the transporter.

Most of you have misunderstood the key point.
Yes, an increase in fuel price can reduce patronage, fewer people may travel, and some may resort to trekking if their destinations are not far. But no driver will leave the park with half-full vehicle.

The real question is: how many commuters will actually resort to trekking?
That number is relatively small.
For instance, can you trek from the mainland to the island?
Of course not.
This means a large percentage of commuters still have no choice but to use transport.
People still go to work, school, and markets. So the idea that a driver operates on ₦5,000 worth of fuel and ends up with just ₦50 profit is just LAMBA of the year.

Yes, the number of trips per day may reduce, also your vehicle fuel consumption will also reduce accordingly.
For example, if a driver normally makes 12 trips daily and it drops to 8, their total earnings will naturally be lower than when they made 12 trips,but I believe the increase in fares should help compensate for the reduced demand.

The only way this argument would make sense is if the driver is consistently operating with half-empty passenger loads from the park on every trip. But realistically, even a mad man would not do that, especially with the current high cost of fuel.

GloriousGbola:
5000 is roughly 4 litres

That is approx 120km maybe 100km when you remove efficiency

Your average keke trip is 1 to 2km at n200 to n 300 per passenger. A trip with three people is
n900

The story makes no mathematical sense and I am sure most actual keke riders are supporting him by being silent

That calculation sounds neat, but you ignore a key factor, transport fares have also increased alongside fuel prices.

Why are you people ignoring that fact?
Are drivers still charging the old fares?
Certainly not.

Now, let’s look at this calculations more carefully:

Old Price
Fuel cost comparison (for 4 litres):
Old price: #870 × 4L = #3,480

New price: #1,400 × 4L = #5,600

At the old price:
Keke carries 3 passengers at #300 each = #900 per trip
Assume 6 trips, #900 × 6 trips = #5,400

Profit :
#5,400 − #3,480 =
#1,920 ( by 6 trips )

At the new price:
Keke carries 3 passengers at #500 each, #1,500 per trip
Assume the same 6 trips → #1,500 × 6 = #9,000

Profit:
#9,000 − #5,600 = #3,400 ( per 6 trips )

So even with higher fuel costs, increased fares have more gain the the old petrol price.

Let me go a bit lower sef.

Let assume the transport fares is #400


At the new price (#400 per passenger):
Keke carries 3 passengers at #400 each, #1,200 per trip
Assume 6 trips, #1,200 × 6 = #7,200

Profit:
#7,200 − #5,600 = #1,600 (per 6 trips )

So mathematically the higher the price of fuel in Nigeria the higher the profit for drivers, don't let them bobo you .

SweetSoup:
You did not read the post very well, the Keke driver said he bought 5k fuel to start the day. He realised he made 5,050 when he wanted to refuel to continue work, meaning he made just 50naira from the first 5k fuel of day he bought and 50naira for the whole day.

It all boils down to the same thing, I don’t believe the story. You can’t buy 5k worth of fuel and end up making a profit of just #50. That’s practically impossible.
Why is he the only one making such an unbelievable claim?
It is odd, that is why it is trending

These days, many people fabricate stories or fabricate odd things just to trend. Go on platforms like Twitter or TikTok and you will see plenty of exaggerated or completely madeup stories.
Ask that man simple questions:
How much was the transport fare before?
How much is he charging now?
Unless he is still charging the old price,but with Nigerian drivers, that is impossible

Amigoos1:
The transport fare increase is even 3 times higher that whatever amount they are paying for fuel. Greedy bas*ards

Thank you jare.
Honestly, it’s easy to tell when people are speaking from sentiment rather than logic.
That’s exactly my point, once a story aligns with what people already believe, they stop analyzing it and simply accept it without questioning it.

These are the questions I’ve asked, but they’ve refused to answer.

Q: Is there an increase in fuel price?
A: Yes, there is.

Q: Has transport fare also increased too?
A: Yes it has.

It has increased and even in some places, it has even gone up by more than 50%.
For example, in my area (Ogun State), from Ilishan to Ikenne used to be #400. Now it’s #700, (that's almost 90% increase)and if you’re lucky to find a considerate okada man, maybe #600.

Is transport fare still the same as before in your area? (pls tell us, let us know ooo)
So how do we then explain drivers claiming they are running at a loss while also increasing fares and you people accepting that without proper analysis?
It doesn’t make sense @ all. That’s where I disagree.
If drivers had maintained the old transport fares despite the increase in fuel price, then I would understand the argument that they are running at a loss. But fares have also been increased. Haba we are not zombies nao

Now, some people argue that drivers still have other expenses, like vehicle maintenance, installment payments, (for those who buy their vehicle , Okada or Keke in installments plan)

But all these things are normal expenses nao, Whether fuel is #100 per litre or #2,000 per litre, you still have to maintain your vehicle, and you still to pay for your instalment plan, the same applies to police daily contributions too and other routine costs.
Fuel price increases have nothing to do with those expenses.

GloriousGbola:
Fuel was 850 before. It is now 1300

That is roughly 50% increase

On top of this Nigeria is a mostly mono energy country - your sme runs on petrol generator. Your larger business on diesel gen - so their operating costs have gone up by 50%.

And we have a massive power failure across country

So our eateries, supermarkets, industries, hospitals, private offices etal are all running at massive increased costs with no end in sight.

The mobilisation costs for our projects has jumped. And it is by more than 50% when you throw in all the knock on effects

Yeah, you are correct about 50% increase, but the fare also has increased nao.

You don change the course of the debate ooo 😂😂😂
Even on our farms, we run diesel 24 hours, (that one no be today oo) but the point of the discussion is about the drivers who claim they lose 5k daily, and the other guy that claimed he made only 50 naira in a whole day. That’s exactly what I believed it can't be true.

Very unnecessary.

Bye, man.

diggz:
Just so you know, many business ventures operate at a loss in their first year and sometimes even longer before they eventually become profitable. And in this tiefnubu economy, it is highly possible for Keke and bolt guys to end up running at a loss for several days. Plenty factors can easily push them into negative earnings e.g. agberos fee, police, expensive fuel, repairs, and more. Plus, you’re forgetting that most of the guys running these types of businesses don’t even own the keke or the vehicle. They’re either renting them or on hire purchase. So after paying the actual owners of these vehicles, how much do you really think is left for them to take home at the end of the day.

Abeg make una dey enter street go see wetin dey sup instead of all these internet gba takes.

Your post is a more balanced submission, but let me explain more to you .

Before the recent fuel price increase, let's agree that many transporters were making around 15k to 20k or more in daily profit. Now, if that drops to about 5k to ₦8,k, they tend to see it as a loss, even though they are still earning. That is largely the reason for the complaints, not necessarily because they are operating at a loss, but because they are no longer making what they used to.
Most of them also have financial commitments such as daily or weekly contributions (ajo) and installment payments. Despite the rise in fuel prices, many are still able to meet these, obligations, which raises a valid question if they were truly running at a daily loss, where would the money to sustain these commitments come from?
So, it’s not entirely accurate to claim they are operating at a loss. Fuel prices did not triple, they increased by roughly 35–40%. At the same time, transport fares have also increased, is transport fare the same?.

Segedinho:
I have friends that does Bolt...

They come home with minus 5k ..

What are you saying??

Yes, things are hard. Fuel prices have gone up not only in Nigeria but globally , and many people are struggling.
But we should stop exaggerating every story just because it fits our narrative and the circumstances we already have.
No rational person will keep running a daily loss business on daily basis and continue like that consistently

Critical thinking matters. Not every claim is false, and at the same time, not every claim should be accepted without questioning.
How can you go to work on daily basis, and come back with minus 5k, and you still go the following day and continue with that repeatedly?


If we turn every story into unquestioned truth, then we become like zombies.

I honestly don’t see anything particularly special in his game. His level, to me, team like Burnley, Fulham, or Wolves. Playing in a star studded team helps his carreer.

If you watch the game yesterday, we should have been at least 2 goals up within the first ten minutes, both chances hit the same bar, though nearly doesn’t kill a bird, but we truly deserved to be comfortably ahead.

I didn’t have much issue with Arsenal’s first goal, but that second one was something I can't tolerate. The scorer took a shot from almost the halfway line and it somehow went in. At that point, I just switched over to wrestling, you can't kill me before my time.😂😂😂

A certain individual has gone missing since that humbling defeat to Man City.
Last seen at exactly 5:29 PM (Nigeria time), just before kickoff between Arsenal and Man City. Since the final whistle, he hasn’t been spotted on this Chelsea thread.

It appears he’s completely lost his way back here.
If found, please escort him to the nearest EPL stadium, or report him to honourable members of this forum, people like Popi, WhoDeyHause, Fredoo, Unlimited22, etc.

A handsome reward awaits whoever successfully returns him.
